### Please describe the problem.
I would like to make multiple copies of precious data and I would like these copies to run simultaneously to minimise the elapsed time taken. Ideally, I would like to specy multiple `--to` options to `git annex copy`. I have tried running multiple processes simultaneously by these start to fail with lock contention on `.git/config`.
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
Running four simultaneous `git annex copy --to=` commands.
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
OS is debian jessie, using `git-annex-standalone` from NeuroDebian.

### Please provide any additional information below.
What I have is a python script and its output which I can't imagine is that helpful, but if you want it I'll upload it.

### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
Usng it regularly and like it - many thanks. This is a wishlist item, not a bug, as far as I'm concerned.
